what is a hero? ┌izuocha┐

chapter 2

┌──❀*̥˚──◌─────❀*̥˚─┐

the green haired young teen  stared at the building. his hands stayed cozily in his pockets. his green eyes trailed off to the ground. his carefree expression was clear yet one could see a hint of amusement.

"let us go, young midoriya."

he chuckled, "jeez. 'young midoriya' feels so odd to be called. don't you feel old calling me that?"

they were way too easy to convince. 

all might clears his throat. "r-right. this way, i'll take you there," the blond said as midoriya only smiled in amusement. he held back laughter, but he ended letting out a small laugh. "what's wrong?" he asked with an innocent smile as he tilted his head to look at all might — who was right next to him. he did not get a response from all might. this boy, he didn't know if he was joking or serious and that was one thing that all might was shaken about.

he tilted his head. "I have a contract regarding my stay at the villian league." midoriya leaned forward and whispered in a childish way, "it is simple really. i'm just there for show."

the number one hero crossed his arms. "for show? could you explain?" he asked sternly. the forest green haired teen plopped his handcuffed hand on his chin. "i am indeed a villain, but in aspects of mindset. the contract had two simple rules for both parties."

his free hand gestured a one, "number one, keep each other in a need to know bases."

he leaned back, sinking into his chair as he showed the peace sign, "number two, do not exchange information of the other's plans or get in the way of the other's plans. that was the deal, while i stayed as a spectator in the league of villains. that was all to it."

he smiled before looking all might in the eyes "ah!" he continued, "i've been talking a lot haven't i? i guess i must be one of those bubbly types."

his laugh didn't seem to hold any danger or malice in it. it frightened all might that he looked so innocent yet so mischievous at the same time. he had to make sure to convince himself this was someone dangerous. in the boy's eyes, he saw danger, innocence, mischief and amusement. that was... odd.

"so you're saying that you have been a mere spectator, you haven't engaged in the villain's plots...? you don't know a thing about the details and even if you do... you can't tell because of your contract."

'what a smart young man,' he heard nezu's voice boom. it was worse enough that he almost forget nezu was listening in and he surprised all might. 'even if you'd force out information, he would use the contract against us as well. on top of that his quite young!'

all might didn't quite understand until he noticed another smile. though, it looked more smug than his usual amused smiles.

"yes and..." he paused before showing a fake sad face that seemed so real, "... if you ever ask me either way by force. i'm sorry, but i can't."

he sniffed and ruffled his hair. the chains had make a sound as he done so. "you see, i've been keeping a secret. my dad is in some shady business involving the league of villains and they threatened to harm my mother. oh, the horror of them revealing information about my mother's whereabouts — just because the heroes forcefully let me leak out information about them." he sniffed again and dared making an infamous dramatic pose when one is in distress. his wide eyes became sharp again and the hero could see the amusement once more. "my, and now i had a good chance in life if i just stayed quiet as a spectator, now my life is ruined at the early age of sixteen! oh, those heroes!"

he laughed and even at that moment it sounded like a genuine innocent one. "maybe that was too dramatic? too much? want to use a quirk to see if it's true?" midoriya asked, tilting his head. "though just imagine the symbol of peace being ridiculed like that. one negative can reach another quite fast, right?"

he didn't give response in his shocked state of mind.

all might could hear nezu laughing and his detective friend didn't respond; it meant that this boy was telling the truth...?

'oh, dear. he got you there, my friend.' he heard nezu hum after his comment. 'listen. how about we take this to our advantage as well?'

all might unconsciously raised an eyebrow and hummed in question as he heard nezu speak. in the end, all might sighed. "it might work," he mumbled to himself as he glanced at a smiling midoriya. he copied all might's reaction by raising an eyebrow; smile still present. he could tell that the boy was enjoying every moment of this and he couldn't do a thing to change this cunning boy's mood. he outsmarted them before they had a chance to think of a way to outsmart him. nezu, of course, had an idea to this contract.

it was worth a try to pull a stunt like this. "you're basically not a villain to society, but you would have to stay here in jail either way," he said before sighing. it was still quite a risk.

"izuku midoriya, that's your name. i'll give you two options. first option, your going to be locked up, being a villain. second — the best option— you have one month to attend UA. in that month you be the judge. stay a villain or become a full time student in UA. meaning you can be a hero."

midoriya lifted his hands as he shrugged with a smile. the green haired teen put his hands back in his pocket.

"this is going to be fun."
